So pretty much the usual has been going on. We've been all relaxing trying to re-coup. 

We've watched some awesome movies together-

you also got a new toy from Grandpa that you LOVE... which is an understatement lol

I actually have a picture of you in it and a video.... but I haven't processed and uploaded them yet. Thats how sick I've been.

Journal entry- 2/5/11 Happy 4 months!

So I've been slacking again on my blog.... hmm I have the tendency to do that. So of course now its 1230  am and I'm finding the time to update you. Its okay because even when I forget on here... I do some type of memory keeping! I love memory keeping... i just can't help it. 

I've been taking photos... ohh and I took a great one! 


its from a class I'm taking with Willette Photography! Its called the Joy of Love.

journal entry- 1/25, layouts,photos, and love!

so its sure been awhile since I've blogged.. ack I tend to do that sometime.

When I do that I always seem to have a lot that I want to talk about. I want to sit and tell you everything that I missed telling you. This last few weeks have been stressful, fun, and amazing all at the same time! We haven't had a lot going on, but more emotions it seems. One of the greatest things this week was...

You learned to giggle!! and its amazing to say the least. 

I finally grabbed a video. The laughing was seriously way louder, but by the time I got the video camera out... you were wearing down. I still captured the giggles.


We are also continuing the job searching... which is never easy. Not in the economy we have today. Its sad that its this way, but its very difficult for everyone.

We're clawing our way out of a recession that has spawned a year and a half of "jobless recovery."
We expect more jobs to open up this year.
But don't expect the pre-2008 job market to return.
Workplaces that downsized aren't likely to regain pre-recession strength. And new hiring isn't apt to fill the same jobs that were eliminated.

One thing mommy and daddy never try to do is lose hope. No matter what when things seem the roughest... is when you truly prevail.

I have some new photos to share. I love taking photos... and I so enjoy my subject material. I never get tired of taking photos of you.

we also did a photo shoot!! we got tons of amazing photos too!!!

Project Love ME: prompt 4- Dream- Words of Wisdom

What dreams do you have for you loved ones? Do you have a message you’d want to share with them about pursuing dreams, re-visiting dreams or letting dreams go? What have you learned in your life about the role dreams can play in your life?

This prompt in its entirety explains why I'm here today, and why I created this blog for you. I want to preserve our memories, share stories,  and tell you the dreams and hopes I have for us.

In everything that it trickles down to I want you to know that I love you now, and will always love you the absolute rest of our existence. 

Human beings, vegetables, or cosmic dust, we all dance to a mysterious tune, intoned in the distance by an invisible player.
